On Sunday, November 5, the Aylmer Legion Branch 33 will host a Remembrance Walk to pay tribute to Canada’s military personnel who have made immense sacrifices in the line of duty.

The event will take place between 1:00 pm and 4:00 pm, commemorating Aylmer’s heroes and recognizing their service.

The Remembrance Walk will involve a solemn visit to local cemeteries, where participants will place a Poppy at the headstone of each veteran as a symbol of remembrance and gratitude.

The event aims to foster a spirit of unity and to honour those who have dedicated their lives to serving Canada.

All members of the community are warmly invited to join the Remembrance Walk, where instructions and Poppies will be provided at the beginning of the event. The schedule includes stops at Pink Cemetery Mountain View at 1:00 pm (1521 Ch Vanier), Bellevue Cemetery at 2:00pm (1030 Aylmer Road), and St. Paul’s Cemetery at 3:00 pm (corner of Aylmer Road and Samuel-Eddy).

Following the Remembrance Walk, a Get-Together for all participants will be held at 4:00 pm at the Aylmer Legion Branch 33, located at 59 Rue Bancroft. This gathering provides an opportunity for the community to come together, share their thoughts, and express their gratitude for the sacrifices made by Canadian military personnel.
